"Malipiero, like a few other notable transcribers and arrangers, did make a contribution to music history; and these works, arranged and original, should not be overlooked. He absorbed the style and processes of, say, Gabrielli, and communicated something new and fresh about his music.

The musicians play with great sensitivity and style. Damiana Pinti's singing is operatic-lyrical, dramatic, and expressive. Paolo Carlini's bassoon playing is also operatic and expressive. The entire performance is worth hearing."-American Record Guide
